School year 5 in the books.

πŸ”—πŸŽ™ Blackout

I finished the first season of this podcast a few days ago, and I really liked it. Dystopian Sci-fi in a podcast with Rami Malek? Yes please.

Student: “Mr. M, I’ve got you a present that’s coming, and it’s two of your favorite things combined!”

Student 2: “So it’s probably something coffee and Star Wars.”

πŸ˜‚ They know me well.

It’s the point in the school year where I’m cancelling repeats on tasks in Things. Do them this week, and then I’m done.

Time to finish strong.

Going to get on my wife’s MacBook Pro so I can work in two Pages documents at the same time. Help me iOS 13. You’re my only hope.

Thankful to be part of a church that is focused on adoption and orphan care, and the courage of these families to share their foster and adoption stories.

I’m working on a script for Scriptable that would allow users to download JSON data from Micro.blog’s Micropub on their latest 100 posts, look in the content of the posts for a certain query, and if it matches assign that post a particular category. But I keep getting the following error from Scriptable.

Error: The data couldn’t be read because it isn’t in the correct format.

Anyone want to take a look at the script and see if you can help me out?

Fiery Feeds has been my primary RSS Reeder for awhile now, and this update is awesome.

For career day, one of my students dressed up as a teacher. I think he nailed it. πŸ˜‚

School may not be out, but summer is officially here. I love you @thepeachtruck πŸ‘.

🎡 The Band CAMINO - See Through

Good gracious I love this band. This song will be on repeat for the summer.

Field Day this morning. Every year I’m amazed at how much fun our PE teachers make it. But now to sleep forever.

As an awkward kid, I found escape and friends in a book series about teenagers who fight aliens by turning into animals. The series, “Animorphs”, had over 50 books, and I read every one.

Every month, my dad would take me to the local bookstore to buy the latest one. It was an event for me.

Today I got to meet the author, Katherine Applegate. I was a bit of a nerdy fanboy, but I was in awe of meeting someone who was such a big part of my childhood. She was kind, and her presentation to our students was amazing. I can’t wait to read more of her recent books.

I’ve seen Sean McConnell in concert at least half a dozen times since 2006. He only gets better. So good to get out and see him again tonight.

My children found out yesterday was Beckett’s (approximate) birthday, and insisted we have a party with cupcakes for him. This poor 7-year-old was not amused. πŸ˜‚

Muffins and Moms for my 3rd Graders today.

I’ve just moved everything out of Bear and Agenda, and back into Apple Notes. I’m not sure if I’m a genius or insane, but we’ll see how this goes.

So. Dang. Catchy.

Anyone else having trouble getting TestFlight apps to install on their watch?

RIP Peter Mayhew. Thank you for Chewie, a character beloved by my whole family.
